Yesterday was filled with errands and chores but I did find a bit of inspiration on Pinterest. I have had a layer cake and some charm packs of Kansas Troubles’ Paisley line for a long time waiting for the perfect idea for a bed quilt for myself. I don’t think I have made a quilt for our bed since the 1990’s! These are the blocks I am making:
They finish at 8 1/4″. An odd finished size but one that allows me to cut all pieces with my die cutter and makes judicious use of my fabric. I cut all the pieces that I need for my 56 blocks.
The gold triangles came from a fabric I had in my stash. I plan to use a 1 1/2″ sashing between blocks. There are 29 pieces in each block so this will take a while. It does feel good to finally have a plan.
And this is a picture I took out my back door late yesterday afternoon.
I think we ended up with another 6″ overnight and many schools are closed again today. However, the library is not so it is back to work for me!

I always enjoy seeing your cut fabric pieces in your enamalware. So nice and organized and tempting to work on 🙂
That is going to be a beautiful quilt! Can’t wait to see it in all its finished glory one of these days.
We got about 5 inches of snow yesterday, your fabrics and blocks will make a beautiful quilt! Thanks for sharing.

I really like your design choice. It goes so well with the fabric. Nice plan!
No pretty picture out my back window … a yard half covered in snow … the ugly melting kind of snow. But at least I didn’t see any freezing rain or ice when I looked out back. That’s a blessing. 😉
I just love those fabrics … that’s going to be an absolutely lovely quilt!
